Emergency Preparedness Shopping Guide

Preparing a kit can seem overwhelming when presented with the task. The Mayes County Emergency Management Department from Oklahoma put together this easy to use shopping guide (PDF). It is divided into picking up items at different locations over a period of 24 weeks (approximately six months.)

Check off each item as you purchase it. Supplies may be stored all together in a large plastic container and / or food may be kept on kitchen shelves. Remember to rotate your perishable supplies and change your water every six months.
